MITCHEL BLEIER YOGA RETREAT

Join Mitchel Bleier and his wife, Tracy for 6 days of incredible yoga, surfing and the natural and cultural beauty in one of the world’s best kept secrets. This week will embrace beauty in all its forms - asana, meditation, thought, writing and mostly great company. It takes on the real notion of a retreat, to learn to treat yourself over and over again.

Tracy Bleier is co-owner and co-creator of Saraswati’s Yoga Joint in Norwalk, Connecticut. Her 10 year yoga practice has led her to many luminary teachers in the yoga industry and many exotic places in the world -- but when she discovered the intelligence, and power behind MB yoga, (the yoga founded by her husband, Mitchel Bleier) she knew she was home (metaphorically and literally). Her studies with Mitchel over the last 2 plus years has helped her develop a teaching style that she likes to call, “intelligent vinyasa” which integrates the breath based rhythm and flow of her former practice of Ashtanga yoga, with the healthy precision and therapeutic benefits of solid alignment. Tracy loves to create classes that possess a rich narrative fabric of thoughts and feelings throughout a challenging mix of asanas. Classes are thoughtfully sequenced to provide an optimal physical experience and atmosphere for her students – she enjoys infusing her classes with music and poetry which complement the already spirited playfulness of her classes. Each class is distinct, articulate and dynamic and her warm, personable style makes her class a genuine expression of her love and understanding of yoga.

Mitchel Bleier, internationally recognized yoga teacher is the epitome of a modern yoga master. He is known for his immense knowledge on all yoga topics, especially asana, philosophy, therapeutics, and adjustments. He teaches with passion and offers a kind, generous, humorous, easy, and sophisticated approach. Mitchel’s classes are an inspiring vinyasa flow incorporating clear alignment direction, deep breathing, and a playful narrative of Indian philosophy and myth that is easily applied to everyday life. For the last 7 years, Mitchel has traveled the world teaching workshops, trainings, and retreats. Recently, he just completed filming 7 DVDs that were released in the fall of 2008.
